BULLS 102 LAKERS 100...See Red's TAJ-manian Devil strikes the LAKE SHOW as does Bulls PG AUGUSTIN...BULLS 102-100 over Team 16 CHIPS as the BULLS move to the .500 Mark which is further away from #Tank4JABARI and the 2014 NBA Draft Lottery...WEST SIDE Story Report w/ BULLS at Sea Level #BULLSnation #DaBULLS

The Chicago Bulls hit the .500 mark as most thought they would not considering they just traded away their 3rd best player in Luol Deng. The beat a beat up and Star-Less Lakers Squad on the 2nd leg of a Back to Back as the Lakers beat the Dinosaurs last night in Toronto.

Behind a Lay-Up at the buzzer by Bulls PF/C Taj Gibson aka the TAJ-manian Devil and a 27 points night from Bulls PG D.J. Augustin See Red is seeing the light as they move to Sea Level at .500 20-20. A nip and tuck affair throughout as the Bulls also get 17 points and twenty-one boards from Joakim Noah and then nerve of Jo to also hand out six helpers...and #13 in Red and Black better be on the East All-Star Team.

The Lakers had chances as they rode the back of Nick Young aka "Nick at Nite" 2.0 or Swagy P is what they call him. Young had a game-high 31 points on 11 of 23 shooting. Gasol went 20 points an nineteen boards with Jodie Meeks adding 17 and Ryan Kelly 13 points an seven boards. The Lakers did everything right but take care of the Orange...21 turnovers will not get you in the Winner's Circle coming out of the Motel on most nights even shooting the way the Lakers did.      

Bulls move to 20-20 with no hope of getting into the 2014 NBA Draft Lottery as you can't win the Lottery if you don't lose. The Lakers fall to 16-26 as they position themselves to make a Huge Move in the Summer of "2014'.
